    Package: kernel
    Version: 2.6.8-1
    Severity: normal


    Hi,

    the standard Debian initrd automatically loads the vesafb module.
    When I try to remove it (to replace it with the radeonfb module), the
    kernel displays this error message:

    Device 'vesafb0' does not have a release() function, it is broken and must be fixed.
    Badness in device_release at drivers/base/core.c:85
